A court would have to make stuff up to allow 2023 and 2024 games to be canceled
without penalty. That’s not what it says at all.

TH has been saying all our deals have clauses like that.

Some are slightly different as Missouri’s required 18 mo notice iirc.

This one requires 2 years notice.

Actually I think I'm wrong. It requires no notice, just has to be notified

Nope you need to keep reading down to the bottom of the paragraph

That clause 3 is worded in a very strange way. I’m not sure it actually makes

It says "becomes a member." We didn’t become a B12 member yet as far as I know.

We are currently voting members of the big 12. We are contractually part of the league.

Is that true? How do we know that? And does that apply to the other 3 newbies?

I’m with you. But that makes no sense, right?

It makes sense. The contract runs through 2034 so the other team wants

I don’t know how you’re divining intent that clearly goes against what it says.

But I get your point that it is not super well written for us giving notice

It may also be a moot point since the first game on that contract is in 2025

No we can cancel the 2023 game if we notify them in 2023.
RGGeemer
9/21/21 5:42am
Where does it say we have to give 2 years notice? It just says we have to notify

Never mind, I see it now. Although, this contract's first game is in 2025, so

I read that to mean we can cancel games anytime as long as we notify them before

Because every contract we’ve seen has been similar yet slightly different. I don’t really care if you don’t find it

Because Tom H., legal… are using those clauses now to get out of or change games
